“Jessica is amazing and I will definitely ask her to take care of my cat again. She went above and beyond to coax my wary cat out of hiding so she could receive attention, and I returned home to a happy, relaxed kitty who has a new friend in Jessica. Jessica's daily notes and pictures were detailed, amusing, and gave me comfort that my cat was well cared for.”
“Doris was great with our pets. She took extra snuggles with our cat as she could tell he missed us. There was an unexpected house destroy by our bird, but she handled it with no issues. Doris did a fantastic job and always kept us updated.”
“Melinda was absolutely amazing with my 3 cats! She was able to make a last minute accomodation to stop in and make sure my cats were fed and their litter was clean. She stayed and made sure all of them were fed. One has anxiety, the other takes a long time to eat. She was kind and all 3 liked her right away and were comfortable with Melinda. She really put our minds at ease and made us feel more comfortable leaving them in her care.”
“Christy took great care of our kitty and went above and beyond during her visits. I would definitely recommend Christy if you need someone to take care of your fur baby/babies.”
“Elise is seriously the best of the best. I’ve been using her as a sitter since 2024. There have been a few occasions that I have had to send a last minute request and she is always accommodating”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for 4 years now. I have three pups of our own and come from a family of pet lovers! Love spending time with pups and helping them keep comfortable in the comfort of their own home. I work full time in a flexible and hybrid environment. Whether the pups are with me or I am staying with the pups in the owner’s home, I make sure they are comfortable and getting all necessary activities. I will work with each pet family’s care guidelines to make sure they are getting the best and stress free care! For us, we have a fenced in yard which helps us with ongoing activities.
About: As a lifelong dog and cat owner with five pets of my own, I understand just how important it is to have someone trustworthy and experienced caring for your animals. As a teacher, I bring patience, responsibility, and strong communication skills to every pet sitting job, ensuring your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family members are treated like part of mine while you’re away! As a dedicated teacher, I’m patient, responsible, and attentive—qualities that naturally carry over into the way I care for animals. Having lots of free time on weekends and throughout the summer allows me to give pets the consistent attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. You can trust that your pets will be safe, loved, and genuinely cared for as if they were my own. I provide loving, dependable pet care right in your home, so your pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and needs to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and truly cared for while you’re away. With patience, attention, and genuine affection, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family.
About: I’ve lived with dogs/cats my entire life. I have checked in, played, fed, given meds and potty breaks to dogs of two other families before. STARTING AUGUST 18: I will be starting my clinical rotations at WellSpan hospitals and other sites. This means during weekdays I will not be available from 6am-3:30pm or even later depending what site I am at that day (i have rotations in Gettysburg). Weekends I am available unless said otherwise! Thank you! I’m a college student on summer break, so I’m available a lot of the time! I let out and play with another dog during weekday mornings, so anytime after that! Although I have an unfenced yard, I live on a dead end road with not a lot of traffic. I have a huge field behind my house where I can play with your pets. I have a friendly Springer Spaniel who can keep your dog company. I can easily crate if needed. Will not walk or let dogs out to potty without a leash. Will play unleashed in field.
“Stephanie did an amazing job while my husband and I were away for a week. I never leave my babies and when I do it's not for long and this was the first time I was able to go on vacation and relax! They were well taken care of and I couldn't be more grateful. I will definitely be using her in the future to watch my cats for sure:)”
About: I’m a dedicated animal lover and experienced caregiver with a lifelong background in working with pets. As a homeowner and mom to a toddler, a German Shepherd mix, and two cats, I understand the importance of respect, safety, and attentive care in a home environment. I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, including large and high-energy breeds like Great Pyrenees and Malamutes. I also have hands-on experience working at multiple doggy daycares, where I learned how to handle dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with walking, playtime, basic training, and administering medications. At home, I care for a senior epileptic cat and a dog who both require daily medication, so I’m very familiar with keeping consistent routines and providing care for pets with special needs. I’ve also trained my own dogs over the years and continue to reinforce structure and good behavior. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for amphibians, reptiles, and previously had chickens, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their different care needs. I’m currently pursuing a degree in biology, which helps me better understand animal health and behavior. Above all, I truly love animals and prioritize their happiness, safety, and comfort in everything I do. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially in the afternoons and evenings. I am currently available starting at 8am on weekdays, as well as weekends, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care during those day. I am a mom to a toddler, so communication is important to discuss flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and extended care. I prioritize reliability and routine, ensuring all visits, walks, and medication schedules are followed closely. At this time, I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes to ensure pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize consistency, safety, and attention to detail. I follow all feeding, walking, playtime, and medication schedules closely, and I take time to understand each pet’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or requires special care, I adjust my approach to make them feel secure and stress-free. I also treat every home with the same respect and care as my own, keeping things clean, secure, and well-maintained while you’re away. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to make your time away as easy as possible for both you and your pet by providing reliable, compassionate, and attentive in-home care.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds and sizes, cats and small farm animals for 12 years and I have a vet assistant certification from Animal Behavioral College. Experienced with med administration, puppies, rescues, and senior dogs. I’m currently home full time - basically my daily and weekly routine is to care for my animals and garden at home. I do travel out of state occasionally to sit for friends and family I’ve worked with over the years. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs to keep your fur baby company and active. A senior Great Pyrenees and a year and a half old mixed breed that love to run around and chase each other and balls in the back yard. My cat is very used to dogs and puppy play dates, and I’m able to crate your baby if needed.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Emigsville
Our dog loves Alexis! He is a very sensitive but sweet boy and she did amazing with him. The photo updates she sent on his breaks were so cute and funny. We are so lucky we found Alexis- she was able to accommodate our schedule and did a wonderful job. We look forward to using Alexis in the future!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gaby was absolutely amazing with our dogs, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. I had to book with her very last minute because of my work schedule, and she didn’t hesitate to help. She was incredibly accommodating and made the entire process completely stress-free. From the moment we met her, she was kind, professional, and clearly cared deeply about animals. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Gaby went above and beyond to make sure they stayed on their normal routine and received plenty of attention, love, and care. It was obvious that she treated them like they were her own. Another huge plus is that her prices are very reasonable, especially considering the exceptional level of care she provides. Finding someone who is affordable, reliable, and truly loves animals is rare, and Gaby exceeded every expectation we had. We will absolutely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and amazing dog sitter!
Alexa agreed to help us last minute after our original sitter had to cancel due to a personal emergency. She provided great care for our two dogs during her drop in visits. She played ball and sent several pictures of them throughout the weekend. She went above and beyond by reaching out after our duck was locked out of the chicken coop after dark, even though she was not responsible for our chickens and ducks care. We highly recommend Alexa for any pet sitting needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Emigsville is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $24 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,932 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Emigsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Emigsville. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
